In order to promote Standard Mandarin in the early days of <a href="/wiki/People%27s_Republic_of_China" class="mw-redirect" title="People&#39;s Republic of China">People's Republic of China</a>, linguists started to research various dialects in Shanxi, comparing these dialects with Standard Mandarin for helping the locals to learn it more quickly. During this period, a few linguists discovered some unique features of Jin Chinese that do not exist in other northern Mandarin dialects, planting the seeds for the future independence of Jin Chinese. Finally, in 1985, <a href="/wiki/Li_Rong_(linguist)" title="Li Rong (linguist)">Li Rong</a> proposed that Jin should be considered a separate top-level dialect group, similar to <a href="/wiki/Yue_Chinese" title="Yue Chinese">Yue</a> or <a href="/wiki/Wu_Chinese" title="Wu Chinese">Wu</a>. His main criterion was that Jin dialects had preserved the <a href="/wiki/Entering_tone" class="mw-redirect" title="Entering tone">entering tone</a> as a separate category, still marked with a glottal stop as in the Wu dialects, but distinct in this respect from most other Mandarin dialects. Some linguists have adopted this classification. However, others disagree that Jin should be considered a separate dialect group for these reasons:<sup id="cite_ref-FOOTNOTEYan200660–61,_67–69_2-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEYan200660–61,_67–69-2"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>2<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-FOOTNOTEKurpaska201074–75_3-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEKurpaska201074–75-3"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>3<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> </p> <ol><li>Use of the entering tone as a diagnostic feature is inconsistent with the way that all other Chinese dialect groups have been delineated based on the reflexes of the <a href="/wiki/Middle_Chinese" title="Middle Chinese">Middle Chinese</a> voiced initials.</li> <li>Certain other Mandarin dialects also preserve the glottal stop, especially the <a href="/wiki/Lower_Yangtze_Mandarin" title="Lower Yangtze Mandarin">Jianghuai</a> dialects, and so far, no linguist has claimed that these dialects should also be split from Mandarin.</li></ol> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Dialects">Dialects</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Jin_Chinese&amp;action=edit&amp;section=2" title="Edit section: Dialects"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>The <i><a href="/wiki/Language_Atlas_of_China" title="Language Atlas of China">Language Atlas of China</a></i> divides Jin into the following eight groups:<sup id="cite_ref-FOOTNOTEKurpaska201068_4-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEKurpaska201068-4"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>4<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> </p> <figure class="mw-default-size" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Jinyufen_qu.png" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/1/19/Jinyufen_qu.png/330px-Jinyufen_qu.png" decoding="async" width="330" height="416" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/1/19/Jinyufen_qu.png/495px-Jinyufen_qu.png 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/1/19/Jinyufen_qu.png 2x" data-file-width="512" data-file-height="646" /></a><figcaption>The main dialect areas of Jin in China.</figcaption></figure> <dl><dd><ul><li><a href="/w/index.php?title=Bingzhou_dialect&amp;action=edit&amp;redlink=1" class="new" title="Bingzhou dialect (page does not exist)">Bingzhou group</a><span class="noprint" style="font-size:85%; font-style: normal;">&#160;&#91;<a href="https://zh.wikipedia.org/wiki/%E5%B9%B6%E5%B7%9E%E7%89%87" class="extiw" title="zh:并州片">zh</a>&#93;</span> (<a href="/wiki/Chinese_language" title="Chinese language">Chinese</a>&#58; <span lang="zh">并州片</span>), spoken in central <a href="/wiki/Shanxi" title="Shanxi">Shanxi</a> (the ancient <a href="/wiki/Bingzhou" title="Bingzhou">Bing Province</a>), including <a href="/wiki/Taiyuan" title="Taiyuan">Taiyuan</a>.

that occur when words are put together into phrases. The tone sandhi of Jin is notable in two ways among Chinese varieties: </p> <ul><li>Tone sandhi rules depend on the grammatical structure of the words being put together. Hence, an adjective–noun compound may go through different sets of changes compared to a verb–object compound.<sup id="cite_ref-11" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-11"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>11<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup></li> <li>There are Jin varieties in which the "dark level" tone category (<i>yīnpíng</i> 阴平) and "light level" (<i>yángpíng</i> 阳平) tone have merged in isolation but can still be distinguished in tone sandhi contexts. That is, while e.g. Standard Mandarin has a tonal distinction between Tone 1 and Tone 2, corresponding words in Jin Chinese may have the same tone when pronounced separately. However, these words can still be distinguished in connected speech. For example, in Pingyao Jin, dark level <i>tou</i> 偷 'secretly' and <i>ting</i> 听 'to listen' on the one hand, and light level <i>tao</i> 桃 'peach' and <i>hong</i> 红 'red' on the other hand, all have the same rising tone [˩˧] when pronounced in isolation. Yet, when these words are combined into <i>touting</i> 偷听 'eavesdropping' and <i>taohong</i> 桃红 'peach red', the tonal distinction emerges. In <i>touting</i>, <i>tou</i> has a falling tone [˧˩] and <i>ting</i> has a high-rising tone [˧˥], whereas both syllables in <i>taohong</i> still have the same low-rising tone [˩˧] as in isolation.<sup id="cite_ref-12" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-12"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>12<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup></li> <li>According to Guo (1989)<sup id="cite_ref-13" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-13"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>13<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> and also noted by Sagart (1999), the departing (<i>qusheng</i> 去声) tone category in the Jin dialect of <a href="/wiki/Xiaoyi" title="Xiaoyi">Xiaoyi</a> is characterized by -ʰ and a high falling tone [˥˧].
